Abstract:
Fast envelope tracking systems are provided herein. In certain embodiments, an envelope tracking system for a power amplifier includes a switching regulator and a differential error amplifier configured to operate in combination with one another to generate a power amplifier supply voltage for the power amplifier based on an envelope of a radio frequency (RF) signal amplified by the power amplifier. The envelope tracking system further includes a differential envelope amplifier configured to amplify a differential envelope signal to generate a single-ended envelope signal that changes in relation to the envelope of the RF signal. Additionally, the differential error amplifier generates an output current operable to adjust a voltage level of the power amplifier supply voltage based on comparing the single-ended envelope signal to a reference signal.
